I'm not ready to say that yet (Spurs I think still have a shot, unfortunately), but let's say that is the matchup. How much pressure do de Jong (official) and de Ligt (rumoured leader) feel from the Barca media/team in the weeks leading up to the final. Even if there is "none" officially exerted, does it get in their heads?
Last time I can think of anything like this was when Mario Goetze signed with Bayern in the lead up to the finals in 2013 (BVB/Bayern), but he ended up being out of the finals -> I remember seeing tons of camera time for him in the finals and he looked like he was fully supporting BVB, but I always wondered if he would've played his best had he been on the pitch. Has to play with your head at least a little bit.
Chelsea official shirt launch.
I'm not a fan of the kit, but the video and poem was awesome.
Good result for both our Blues and Arsenal yesterday...Looks like we're on a collision course.
I agree, but I sure would have liked to have got a 2nd. Would feel more much more secure had eg. Luiz' FK gone in rather than beating the keeper but clanging the bar.
Arsenal's 3rd goal probably had that exact effect for Gunners on here.
Oh man, this season is unraveling quickly for Spurs. 2 reds today (at least Son will be well-rested for Weds vs Ajax?), a couple injuries (no chance those dudes are ready for Ajax), and then just gave up the lone goal 2 mins into stoppage time to lose a match vs Bournmouth and possibly fall out of the Top 4 in the Premier League. They have to be gassed, too. Going to take some other-worldly recovery techniques to handle the young kids this week.
I don't think it will happen...but I desperately want a repeat of this final day:
Not to worry...Your Gooners have owned Chelsea of late. You'll most likely win the EL.
As much as I envy your apparently charmed life, it appears your "worst nightmare" is getting closer to fruition.
I think what amazes me the most is that Salah didn't play today due to a concussion, and they still scored 4 goals.
Origi scored 2 goals?
Wijnaldum scored 2 goals?

Seemed highly unlikely, for sure. Two years in a row now that Barca's choked away a 3-0 lead after leg 1 to be eliminated.
And the very real prospect of the Peasants playing Sperm for the title is even worse.
Come on you AJAX!
Come on you AJAX!
I'm miserable.
Uninstalling all football apps.
I guarantee we lose 4-Nil or worse tomorrow.
Can't even watch the CL Final at all now.
Son of a #^$%!!!

Ed, I hear you, now those dirtf@cks have a shot at the CL. Makes me sick. I hate Messi and Barcelona even more. Must make you sicker, having to root for them against Tottenham.
Haven't heard that team name in a long while, brought an instant laugh. Makes me want to break out the John Terry, Kleenex kit sponsor, GIF!
